I don't get this, is this really a technical issue or just an interface
one ? It can be pretty clear to users that the semantic entity pages are
very different from lexical entities in the same instance just by
tweaking the UI. Or with separate instances this can be confusing as
well if not well done.

Is this a community issue ? Different project, different communities,
different site ? I really don't like it as it tends to make several
groups who can have difficulties to talk to each other and go on the
other site. I think as Wikidata community is already constituted and
tends to try to grow and advocate for the project, considering its
central situation in the ecosystem and that community tends to learn how
to make interproject social links, it would be beneficial imho to
continue to grow and to learn from here. There is strong connections
between words and senses.

I think in that global scheme, one or several instance is a mostly
technical detail that is not really important and that both solutions
can accommodate to distinct (or not) pages or distinct (or not) communities.

That's what I was thinking as well. As far as I see, whether it's one site or two sites would not make much difference for users, other than that the domain part of the URL would change and the menu/logo on the left would be different. But the accounts would be the same, the individual page contents would look the same, and the cross-links between dictionary content and data content would also be the same. Things would probably work fine either way.

    Hi

        I do not think a separate Wikibase instance would be needed to
        provide the data for Wiktionary. I think this can and should be
        done on Wikidata. But as said by Milos and pointed out by
        Gerard, lexical knowledge does indeed require a different data
        schema. This is why the proposal introduces new entity types for
        lexemes, forms, and senses. The data model is mostly based on
        lexical ontologies that we surveyed, like LEMON and others.


    I think a separate Wikibase installation would be much better than
    adding lexical knowledge on Wikidata. Wikidata is about things in
    the first place and Wiktionary is about words etc. So having a
    Wikibase installation only for Wiktionary makes more sense in my
    opinion as that is the same plan we currently have for
    Commons/Wikiquote etc. It would still be connected to Wikidata in
    ways like accepting items from Wikidata as values in statements and
    having access to their data. However, we should separate lexical
    knowledge and Wikidata also wiki-wise.

    Best regards,
    Bene
